As I stopped to admire a cat that was sharing a lunch with his owner, we started chatting about our pets. The conversation was short, but I will never forget her looking at me seriously and saying 'thank you.' She said, 'so often people just ignore us, but the people at Providence make this extra effort to talk to us and recognize we are still human beings.”
